A Child's View from Gaza

[Elekktra7]

Ya haram! ;,(((

[Dharani26]

I'm receiving a package of Gazan children's art work. It will be mounted and displayed in our city's Children's Museum and in a panel exhibition in the school I teach in to commemorate International Children's Rights Day. Long live Palestine! We will NOT go down! Gaziantep, Turkiye loves Palestine! Viva Mavi Marmara! Never forget, never forgive! Martyrs NEVER die!

[TheAmericanNative]

I..... I haven't cried in forever. This, I feel tears going down my face....

[seeingformyself]

It is a shame people feel the need to invent reasons to dis-credit the children's drawings... they are children's drawings talk to an art therapist. The drawings show Israel committing the atrocities in Gaza.If Israel is not to be seen in this way..she must stop her aggression. stop killing, stop committing atrocities, stop being a violent bully. She is portrayed in the light she created. Stop pressuring for cancellation of exhibits, exert pressure on Israel to stop her destruction of Gaza.

[Hajjat]

This is so saaad! :'(

[iotuella]

why do all those children draw so well and all of them in the same style?

[ESO529]

@iotuella If you call this "draw so well and in the same style" then you've got no clue about drawing - LOL! Neither did you bother to look at the pics. But they by far don't draw as well as the children of Israel who where lovingly decorating the bombs before the IDF dropped them on the innocent civilians of Lebanon in 2006 :-(. But I assume that was very much OK with you!? I know it's ugly if you have to look in the mirror. Just stop these massacres and there will be no pics!!!

[Stuberman]

This is appalling. You foist your propaganda on children and then market this warped view to the world. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Where are the drawings of the Hamas terrorists who start all of this?

[alawson911]

@Stuberman

Typical. This is not "foisted propaganda" this is the reality of what Israel is doing to Palestinians, seen through the eyes of the children who have suffered it. Zionists cannot abide being revealed for what they are and what they do, so no one should criticise them, not even their victims.

The history of the known theft of Palestinian land, towns and villages by Zionist settlers is not going away, and Hamas has ever right and duty to stand up to Zionist Israel in any way it can.

@Stuberman i guess ur hasbara tricks are not working here, u have sold urself, fr a mere thirty pieces of silver.

@Stuberman

Thank you!

[Siefg42]

here your truth comes out – pure hatred… it’s sad because people that hate are the problem to solve all these problems and to get peace for everyone…

but then' I guess you don't want peace, - you want death.

sad for the human race...

[SpasticatedCunt]

Death to Israel.....That is all

[Axbent]

hoax

[Siefg42]

I think the Israeli's only partly the blame for Gaza's situation. The Hamas and other terror organization are also part of the problem.

[Cefuroxx]

@Siefg42

your hasbara crap aint gonna work anymore, take your cow and pony show on the road mr fuckface

[lotr450]

@Siefg42 It's not surprising that Hamas uses violence against Israelis. They're sick and tired of Israel's brutality and aggression towards Palestinians and so they see violence as the only legitimate option to defend themselves. Hamas wouldn't have existed If Israel wasn't killing thousands of Palestinians in the first place.

[Siefg42]

I'm not being rude. I'm am pro civil rights for every human being in the world no matter where but I also Condemn deliberate false propaganda. I think the Gaza children must have a better life and more over - basic human rights. but I also don't believe these drawing are really Gaza children drawings or any other children’s drawing. I bet real drawings of Gaza children would be good enough for a gallery show but why fake them??? this is clearly an anti-Israel propaganda.

[Siefg42]

did you draw them?

[Siefg42]

these drawings look like drawings of a grownup or even a profesional illustrator!

[iilish]

@Siefg42

Yep that are that good!,,,,but i really believe that you are just another ZIO troll being rude. ya'll are so trite

[ESO529]

@Siefg42 1) A 1st grader in Arts could tell you otherwise but you're not interested anyway/ 2) Palestinian/Arab kids in your opinion should all be imbeciles and cretins, right? It can not be that all the Israeli efforts to keep them at the "level down below" doesn't bear fruits, right? You're disgusting - sorry. 3. Would it concern the Holocaust you and the likes would be up in arms and run to Mami USA that they must bomb that museum!

[waliyainayat]

I am saddened to see the opening statement that there will be seeds of vengeance for years to come. The Qur'an tells us, "to show them something better." May we create a world where all children live in peace. Ameen.

[NewKilleur]

I think the people who afree with a war is a people who want see the world burn because they suffocate to see some people happy without work 9hours everyday for nothing more that can drink and smoke after work and say we are the best !

[tachi17]

SHAME ON YOU Oakland's Museum of Children's Art for canceling this exhibition!!! I am fucking DISGUSTED!!!!!!!!

[MrMiseeire]

These pictures by children from gaza were supposed to be on expedition somewhere in the Bay area of Cal., but zionazi americans protested and they have been with drawn. Americans wake up. Does Tel Aviv completely dominate your minds,

[NoorAlHaqiqa]

And now the Zionist cowards have had the museum of Oakland withdraw the showing of this exhibit! What are they afraid of? One writer wants Israeli kids art included. CHUTZPAH. Or is it... no America, these children do not exist. Go back to sleep, nothing to see here.

[scarredsouvenir]

I cannot find the first song that is played in this video... do you know the name?

[mrrdrm]

@scarredsouvenir It's "The Strike" from Marcel Khalife's album "At the Border." I recommend the whole album.

[scarredsouvenir]

@mrrdrm Thank you so much! =)

[audice123]

Stop the one sided bull shit.. Allow the children to express what they SEE. Children tell the Truth and if Israel is ashamed, then STOP.

[armani28007]

It's a dam shame that the zionists in America stopped the Museum from showing these pictures in Oakland, CA. What a shame and we call ourselves a freedom of expression nation. I guess freedom only for the JEWS!

[14Friendsofpalestine]

When will we listen to children, and stop war forever?

[Janba32]

These pictures remind me of the pictures drawn by the children of El Salvador who were the victims of the US backed military and death squads.

Once again we see the pictures drawn by children who are victims of the US backed vicious Israeli military.

When will this madness end? When will children live free from the boms and bullets/

When will the US stop funding the war makes and stop being a war maker itself.

Soon we will be seeing pictures drawn by the children of Iraq and Afghanistan.

[crifoter69]

There are 2 similar pictures by iraqi children on post-cards for anyone to see over my station. Mass demonization and punishment seem against the grain of what I was taught in sunday school, by mom and by grandma, and suprise suprise...as of late by 3 buddhist friends.

[Tristan94702]

This was completely inappropriate for a public exhibit. Nothing more than nasty, one sided propaganda. will you show something about children in Sderot huddling in bomb shelters as bomb fall on their homes?

[batata101sahnab]

@Tristan94702 how can you even compare??!! imagine if the the children in sderot were palestinians and the children in gaza were israelis would your comment be the same ?? would you still feel the seem??

[AndreBacchus]

@Tristan94702 The children of Sderot like the children of Gaza are victims of Zionism.



[GussetMonkey]

@Tristan94702 Sderot is built on Palestinian land, zionists should not even be there, by international law. And what a ridiculous comparison anyway

[rubiconski2008]

Gaza, How can i help u ?
